Downton Abbey

Due to Downton Abbey finishing its third series on Sunday, (and having starting to feel withdrawal symptoms), I thought it was appropriate to talk about my favourite TV show.

An odd choice for my favourite TV show for my age, however the story line, characters and costumes make it very entertaining. The establishing shots of the house are my favourite, as you are able to see Downton in all its glory, in full view. Some of the plot lines, I must admit are a bit over the top, however they never fail to entertain.

 Series 2 was definitely my favourite series as it was set during the First World War so the story line was full of deaths, scandals and romances. However, Series 3 was quite a disappointment for me, it was pretty...boring. Having to wait almost a year for Series 3 to begin, I had incredibly high expectations for the new series, but other than the unexpected ( and very upsetting ) death of Lady Sybil, I am sad to say that Downton failed to entertain me as much as it did during the last series.

 Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys period or costume dramas, and over the top story lines !
